Alessia Cara Quotes

I grew up in this little city called Brampton. It's pretty suburban - there's not a lot going on. In my neighbourhood, specifically, there weren't a lot of other kids so I would just spend a lot of time inside.
I guess people don't think that young girls or young artists have opinions, but I'm so glad that there's artists like Lorde and Raury and Kehlani because they're showing other people that young people can have an opinion and a voice and do really well with it. I'm glad I can be one of those people.
I had a fairly regular childhood. I was a pretty boring kid. I didn't do much. I was always thinking, but I didn't really say a lot.
I just dress how I wanna dress. Not to say that I don't care about how I dress or that I'm a slob or anything like that... I just don't have to worry about the outside opinions of what people are saying.
I just try to tell my stories in a way that is still light-hearted and fun to listen to. I'm not trying to bash you over the head with what I have to say.
I just want to keep my normal life for as long as possible.
I keep my hair curly and natural because I really just wanna show who I am.
I like to mimic accents. I don't even know if that's a talent. That's just a weird thing that I do.
I love experimenting with clothes for photo shoots, but when I'm onstage, I want to show people that there are other options. You can just be yourself and still make good music.

I never really necessarily liked being quiet.
I never thought I'd have a career because of YouTube.
I really want to speak for young women, especially because I feel like we're constantly brainwashed in everyday life.
I remember making a 'thank you' video when one of my videos got to 50 views!
I see songs in colors; I see days of the week. Each day of the week I relate to a gender, and it's very weird. I can taste words sometimes. It's very strange.
I think all teenagers feel a lot of things at once; everything's going crazy in our brain.
I think fame is such a scary thing, and it's something I can never understand. It's terrifying, but it's the only way I get to do what I love every day, you know?
I think that my music is really empowering. I just want people to know - especially young people, but really everyone - that you don't have to be so caught up in what everyone else is thinking. You don't have to be the coolest, most popular person. You can just be you and be vulnerable.
I think the media can definitely show more diversity - different sizes of women, different colours of women, just more diversity in general.
I think the world is very closed-minded sometimes and very dated. We need to start opening our minds.
